Ballot to be Bexar's biggest ever

The Nov. 6 ballot will be the longest in county history, with up to 59 screens of choices on voting machines and a minimum of 42 screens, officials say.

Wednesday's announcement means voters should plan on the process taking longer, although some voters may be overwhelmed and vote in only a few top-ballot races.

This worries down-ballot contenders and proponents of the pre-K initiative. Pair that with confusion among voters about ID rules and redistricting-induced precinct changes, and it could be challenging to navigate at the ballot when early voting starts Monday.
